A unicameral legislature is a government with one legislative body.
Further Explanation:
A unicameral legislature was used by the United States under the Articles of Confederation. During the Articles of Confederation, there was one delegate from each state present at the legislature. These individuals each represented their state and could vote on new laws/amendments to the Articles of Confederation. After the Articles of Confederation failed (more information on that in the "Learn More" category), the United States changed to a bicameral legislature.
Under the current US Constitution, the US has a legislative body that is made up of two houses. This includes the House of Representatives and the Senate. In order for a bill to become a law on a national level, it must pass both parts of the legislature.
